• Complete 35 Rampages: Find and successfully complete every Rampage mission.

9. Miscellaneous Tasks (3 Tasks)

• Rob all 15 Stores: Enter all 15 "robbable" stores (like jewelry stores, hardware stores, etc.) and aim your gun at the clerk until they give you the money.

• Purchase all 7 Safehouses: Buy every purchasable safehouse on the map (assets do not count toward this total).

• Ammu-Nation Rifle Range: Score 45 points or more at the rifle range in the Downtown Ammu-Nation.

💡 Pro-Tips for 100% Completion

• Do Vehicle Missions Early: It's highly recommended to do the Paramedic, Firefighter, and Pizza Boy missions as early as possible on the first island.

  • Paramedic (Level 12): Permanently unlocks Infinite Sprint.

  • Firefighter (Level 12): Makes Tommy fireproof.

  • Pizza Boy (Level 10): Increases your Max Health to 150.

• Vigilante Mission Tip: The easiest way to complete Level 12 of Vigilante is to wait until you have access to the Hunter attack chopper (unlocked after collecting all 100 Hidden Packages or completing the main story).

• Collectibles: Use a map! Finding all 100 packages, 36 jumps, and 35 rampages without a guide is nearly impossible. It's best to collect all 100 Hidden Packages early to get the powerful weapon spawns at your safehouse.

• Pole Position: Many players get stuck at 99% because they forget the Pole Position Club. You must enter the back room and pay for private dances until you have spent a cumulative total of $300.

• "The Driver": This Malibu Club mission is notoriously difficult. The best tip is to park a faster, more durable car near the starting line before you trigger the mission, allowing you to quickly swap cars when the race begins.
